Title: Names... Names... Names... (I need some help)
Post by: Skull on November 10, 2010, 02:15:42 AM
I need some help with girl names but before you start brainstorming please let me explain first.

I've been having several problems with my next story becasue the direction I'm going is quite darker then I really wanted, so I'm going to shelf my christmas tree serial killer idea for the moment. I believe my original intention as writing it as a movie script was a better idea and the direction I need to focus ~ so I need to clear my mind and start something different. Something fun... Something silly... Something like:

Zombies vs Bikini girls...

Very recently I was watching a slasher/mystery (lol ~ really) called Bikini Island (1991) its quite bad and fun; the story of woman dressed in swimsuits in a photo shoot as a serial killer used such weapons as a toilet plunger and then would leave a note telling the others that such and such decided to leave the island... Anyway during the late 80's rock-n-roll and the photo shoots I was daydreaming of zombies comming from the waters and attacking the bikini girls...

Another daydream was a great white shark snatching one of the girls inside the waters and old/harden Dolph Lundgren jumps into the waters and squeezes the shark and the girl flies out of its mouth. Ok, this daydream was based upon a story my wife told me earlier and I just cannot get the picture of Dolph Lundgren squeezing the shark out of my head.

I've also did some more daydreaming and decided to test my silly idea out on a story; I talk more about it later.


My story idea:

"BIG TROUBLE in Booty Island"

Plot: A bunch of sexy models on a photo shoot in Booty Island encounters a Lich, Zombies and other monsters.


I'm at the brainstorming phase of this idea and I need help with fun and cleaver names for sexy models.

Thanks for your help...

For a movie/story like this I like names that reflect things about the characters, so if they're models names like "Candy" or similar would go well.  It would be funny to have a character's name have something to do with the way they die in at least one instance.  Kind of like if you have a jock character called 'Axe' and he gets killed by an axe etc.

Give the girls a theme?  All of them have the same name/same variation: Mary-Anne, Mary-Lee, Mary-ruth or something similar?  For a zombie bikini killer movie there are no limits!  Stripper names are always good.  Something you can build one liners about, like 'It's Destiny' meaning the character, and also the fact that they're all going to die.

Sir, that name makes me want to go out and buy the first one! :thumbup:

names, though, are we talking about the 1950's or today? :question:

Silly names for sexy models who get the chop...

Die-anna.

Hmmm....
This isn't the comedy gold mine I was hoping for. I'll try again later.

Give them all names from Disney movies like Bambi, Thumper, Auora, Jasmine, Dumbo, Sneezy etc.

They did something like that (to good effect for such a silly movie, in my opinion) in PANDEMONIUM.  There, it was Mandy, Candy, Randy, Sandy, Andy, etc.  And character had an oddball name...Glenn.   :teddyr:

wow, thanks for some of the suggestions.

Quotenames, though, are we talking about the 1950's or today?

Sorry, I'm not sure about the meaning here? I'm not actually sure about the story date or the actual number of girls in the story.

Doggett ~ Yes, I'm hoping for a horror comedy story... at least something fun...

So Die-anna would work for me...  :smile:

Well, if the story is set in present-day, you want names, or funny variations of names, that are relevant to the age of the characters, that is, based on the types of names that are popular for the age group. So, if it's set in the present-day, then the models are likely to be in their early 20's, let's say average age of 23. Lookup the popular baby names for girls from 1988 on Google and that will give you the relevant popular girls names. That should serve as some general inspiration. If any jump out at you, then use it, or make a variation of that name that makes it funnier or sillier.

Just an idea.

what I'm saying is this like a 1950's B-Movie horror type theme or is it like a modern theme?

Many thanks for your suggestions... But I think I'd figure out a cleaver name package for the bikini models...

There names are:

Sayyida Al-Hurra
Maria Lindsey
Charlotte Badger
Ingela Gathenhielm
Grace O'Malley
Flora Burn
Loi Chai-San
Rachel Well
Jacquotte Delahaye
Anne Bonny

These names work for me because they sound like typical fashion models names but they are actually female pirate names...  It makes killing them off a little easier... :buggedout:

Sydney Milliner!

Thanks for the suggestion... the pirate woman names are working for me... but I may use Sydney for another story.


I'm working on some photogaphers for my story... Klaus Kinski, Paul Naschy and Tony Todd although I dont want to use their actual names but I want such fans to identify them... any suggestions would be great... :)

PS... after watching 2 years of Klaus Kinski and Paul Naschy movies I just have a compelling need to put them into a story together.

PSS... I also have other's in mind as well such as Dyanne Thorne and Lucio Fulci
